The Fourth Stage

"So... powerful..." Koyuki, Sandayu, and the filming staffs all stared blankly at Haku who stood in the snow like a snow woman. They never thought that this girl who was as pure as snow would be so powerful that she could kill three Snow ninjas in one move.

Especially Koyuki and Sandayu, who knew the strength of these three people, were even more stunned. At the same time, they also realized that how could there be weaklings among those who could stand together with Tsunade? Their hope of dealing with the revival of the country was also getting bigger. This battle which ended in an instant made Koyuki completely walk out of her dark memories of the past.

Thanks to Haku's display, she could see with her own eyes the truth that the so-called powerful enemies from the past were so weak that it would be easier for her to walk out of the shadows of the past.

"Ryoha-sama, how is Haku's strength?" Haku's voice was still ethereal, but to others, it was cold to the heart, making people feel cold and shiver.

"Very powerful, Haku, you are really too powerful. Your Ice Release Bloodline Limit is about to reach the fifth stage, right?" Ryoha guessed.

"Yes, Haku has already reached the peak of the fourth stage. I came to the Land of Snow in order to break through to the fifth stage. Otherwise, it would be difficult to achieve in the Five Major Countries' environments. Only in a place like Land of Snow could it be achieved." Haku nodded happily as if Ryoha's praise was a great joy for her.

"Haku's blood inheritance is really too unique. To improve its power, one had to elevate their internal and external body strength."

"If Haku completes the fifth stage, it is very likely that her strength will reach the level of Kage along with her Bloodline Limit. It is really frightening. It seems that if I don't work hard, I will be very likely to be overtaken by her."

At this moment, Ryoha had already deeply understood why the first head of the Yuki clan had said that only a female was the most suitable to revive the clan. It was also clear why the number of clanswoman that inherited the Ice Release in the past only amounted to less than five. Haku inherited a rare Ice Release-compatible body and could bring out Ice Release's power to the greatest extent.

"Every Bloodline Limit has its own unique advantage. Moreover, this Bloodline Limit has existed for a very long time. Among the known Bloodline Limit in the ninja world, Ice Release's ability, such in terms of the increase in the user's combat strength, speed, and supportive abilities, was ranked in the top five."

"Of course, this is only on paper. The real extent of the ability of the Bloodline Limit is completely dependent on the user. Take the Uchihas, for example. There are a lot of people who inherit the Sharingan in the clan, right? But how many people can evolve the Sharingan to the Mangekyo?"

"Most of them are just mediocre. If you meet someone who is really suitable for Bloodline Limit, then their Bloodline Limit should be already passed their peers'. It is common to see some of them even surpass the maximum level written on the records."

Tsunade said with a bit of amusement. Although she hadn't awakened her Wood Release, she still had a better understanding of Bloodline Limits. She also knew a lot about Nature transformation-based and eye-based Bloodline Limits. If eye-based Bloodline Limits had their advantages, how could Nature transformation-based Bloodline Limit not have their own advantage?

Don't think that just because the Sharingan was very powerful, it was truly invincible. If it were really the case, then Uchiha would be unmatched, and there wouldn't be other clans with their own Bloodline Limit. There was also Bloodline Limit that could rival the Sharingan since not only the Sharingan could continuously evolve, but other Bloodline Limits could too.

What Tsunade was trying to say was any kind of Bloodline Limit had its advantages. If it fell into the right hands, that Bloodline Limit would continuously evolve.

A lot had changed since the first discovery of Bloodline Limit, so the ranking was frequently changed.

"That's right. Without Bloodline Limit, Minato would still be able to move unhindered. Even Tobi, who had the Eternal Mangekyo, was defeated by him. Bloodline Limit could increase the combat strength of a ninja and also had many advantages in various aspects, but it was also limited. It did not mean that the user was invincible."

"Nowadays, many powerful Kage-level ninjas don't have Bloodline Limit, but they are still not standing at the peak of the entire world. Uchiha had enough people with Sharingan, but how many of them had actually reached the level of Kage? From ancient times until now, there were no more than seven."

"You absolutely cannot underestimate those who don't have Bloodline Limit just because you have many Bloodline Limits. Although some people don't have any Bloodline Limit right now, it doesn't mean they will not have one in the future. People with outstanding talents might develop their own later in life or has enough strength to overpower the Bloodline Limit users. You can't afford to look down on them."

Ryoha was constantly alert in his heart, making him, who was originally a little complacent because of Shikotsumyaku, immediately wake up. Obviously, Tsunade saw that he was a little carried away, so she took this opportunity to wake him up when he had just started so that he would not fall deeper.

Thinking of this, Ryoha immediately returned a grateful look to Tsunade. However, the latter smiled and shook his head. Ryoha couldn't help but feel a warm feeling in his heart. At this time, Ryoha realized that he had unknowingly gained a lot of friends who really cared about him unconditionally.

From the beginning, there was only Bulma. Then he met Hinata, Haku, Kurenai, and Byakko. Now there were two more, Tsunade and Shizune. This made Ryoha, who had always been a lonely otaku in his previous life, very happy and cherished this hard-won warmth.

"Alright, let's go. I don't want to waste time here. After dealing with the Doto, arrange a tour guide who is most familiar with the terrain for us and take us to the coldest place in the Land of Snow."

Ryoha had made this decision after careful consideration. The colder the place, the more suitable it was for Haku to train. At the same time, that kind of place would be absolutely quiet. No one would disturb her training. Of course, Bulma could also get a quiet environment to do his research.
